 Hi, my name is Amir Ahmed. I use he and pronouns and I serve as vice provost for diversity equity inclusion here at University of Vermont I'm here today to tell you about the 2022 UVM campus climate survey as vice provost I was invited to UVM to usher in a new DEI strategic planning process This campus climate survey is absolutely vital for us to be able to baseline and create benchmarks for that five-year strategic planning process that we're embarking upon. This process is vital for UVM to live into being an inclusive community and its commitment to inclusive excellence In order to do this, it's going to take all of us beginning on February 7th You're gonna have an opportunity to take this survey, and I'm not just asking you to take this survey I'm asking you to invite as many people you know in the UVM community to do so as well It really doesn't take that long to complete. It's only about 10 to 15 minutes of your time You can do it on your cell phone or on a computer This information is absolutely vital for our ability to be able to get a true understanding of the experiences that members of our community are having And as I said, this will inform the next five years of our commitment to DEI and living into our values here at UVM For more information go to the website below and I look forward to seeing you on campus this semester
